But its beautiful gothic exterior hides a horrific past: it was the scene of a series of depraved killings that have never been solved.

Detective Jenna Murphy used to consider herself a local, but she hasn't been back since she was a girl.

As more bodies surface, and the secret that Jenna has tried desperately to escape closes in on her, she must risk her own life to expose the truth--before the Murder House claims another victim.
Full of the twists and turns that have made James Patterson the world's #1 bestselling writer, The Murder House is a chilling, page-turning story of murder, money, and revenge. Views: 1 248
